Abstract: Cooling module geometry provides a method for controlling local condensation for liquid impingement two-phase cooling of electrical and/or electronic circuit chips. The method and apparatus described herein uses vapor condensation in the exhaust flow from each chip site within a multi-chip module which utilizes direct liquid impingement with phase change.
